While we're very happy to have you in the Gulch and appreciate your wanting to fully engage, some things in the Gulch (e.g. voting, links in comments) are a privilege, not a right. To get you up to speed as quickly as possible, we've provided two options for earning these privileges.

Good to hear from you. I too asked for it, got what I deserved, but never did I consider it abuse. My Father never damaged anything but my excessive pride. He would not tolerate disrespect to my elders, but never inflicted corporal punishment that was not deserved, or caused physical harm beyond a welt. I admit my transgressions and also learned from them. It did not destroy my precious self esteem. Nonsense... for some of us it is a character builder. I learned mental discipline and tried to please him that much harder. These latest generations have been pampered and coddled. The results are guys like the one in the story. Generations like ours are largely being replaced with misguided, entitled, crybabies.

pretty much of what men do)....excuses be
gone!!
It's the way they rationalize being freaking lazy!
their masculinity stripped"....whose fault is
THAT?? What REAL man would ever let THAT
happen???
My dad picked up a two by 4 that was on the ground and smacked me the butt so hard it cracked the 2x4 and made me remember the incident sharply for a week every time I sat down, and sit tenderly for a month.
At the time I was hitting a very rebellious stage. This incident cured the problem in me. I understood there were lines that you do not cross.
Today this would be child abuse, but for me it was a golden learning moment that improved the person I am for the rest of my life.
I had earned a spanking with my fathers hand before, but this instance was one time, and the last time my dad ever spanked me. I insured I would never need it again by my actions.
Seems that same mental mindlessness is attracted to Bernie...now you know why.
Useful idiots... I suspect they are not all male, but this one in particular needs a good spanking. My generation was not raised so.
Respectfully,
O.A.
